Hi, I'm Greg.

I help Wake County seniors stay in the homes they love with technology that actually works.

Greg Hansen, Founder of Lasting Independence - Senior Tech Consultant helping families with aging in place technology

At Lasting Independence, I bridge the gap between complex gadgets and the reliable support you need to stay in the home you love. With 20 years of experience right here in Wake County, I don't just install devices; I restore the confidence to age in place.

The Lasting Independence Promise:

  • Reliability Above All: 81% of seniors say reliability is a necessity. I only install "human-centric" systems that are battle-tested to work exactly when you need them.
  • Dignity Through Simplicity: 80% of adults 50-plus prioritize ease of use. I specialize in intuitive, voice-activated lighting and controls that remove the "tech overwhelm".
  • Privacy First: Your home is your sanctuary, not a laboratory. I ensure your data is safeguarded so you can live autonomously without feeling "watched" or monitored.
  • Honest, Local Value: I help you find low-subscription or one-time-cost options that respect your budget. No hidden fees—just practical solutions that provide real peace of mind.

"We don't just install gadgets; we provide the tools to maintain your freedom and stay connected to what matters most."

— Greg, Founder of Lasting Independence
